Chapter 558: Backlash
Chapter 558 Backlash
From the beginning to the end, Ji Xiu is different from others. At this time, he has a leisurely mood of watching the excitement, and even feels quite relieved.
At this moment in this situation, Xia Tingzhen was forced to such a situation by the Lord Zhen Guo. Look carefully, it is more like the situation when he was pushed out to commit the crime for the King of Xiang?
No, really speaking, Xia Tingzhen is not so wronged than he was then——
At that time, he really had nothing to do with the Queen Mother, and knew nothing about all calculations. Now, Xia Tingzhen dare to say that the poisoning of the Lord Zhen Guo didn’t have his idea?
In the final analysis, it's just a calculation of others all the year round, and it's finally backlashed!
He wants to see how the emperor will choose this time...Is it true that no one can move Xia Tingzhen?
Rather than being wiped on his neck by a knife in the dark, he would rather look at the old fox who always seemed to be aloof without putting everyone in his eyes, who can be used to calculate anything and everything. This old fox has tasted the taste of falling from a height and losing everything. .
"This matter is of great importance, and the two Aiqings are my right-hand men..." Emperor Qingming said with a serious face: "I don't want to wrong anyone, let alone wronged any one. The truth of this matter, I will definitely understand. Find out as soon as possible."
As he said, looking at the Lord Zhen Guo, his face was full of guilt: "This time the Lord Guo led his troops to Dongyuan to attack the Li Clan, it is for Daqing, for the sake of me, but I asked the Lord to take this big risk. This is my fault... dare to ask the Lord, can he still trust me now?"
Zhen Guoguo's eyes were full of tears, and he clasped his fists: "Your Majesty is the monarch whose minister wants to take his life to loyalty. Of course the minister believes!"
Jixiu's eyebrows trembled when she saw it: …good guy, he didn’t know that Duke Zhen had such good acting skills in the past! ——Sure enough, can no one succeed casually?
"Okay, since the Duke is still willing to trust me, then I can rest assured that it will be handed over to me for detailed investigation and handling. I will definitely give the Duke an explanation."
Qingming Emperor looked at Lord Zhen Guo: "Where is Yuepei now?"
"Return to your Majesty, this person is outside the gate of the Forbidden Palace. The old minister is not good at making his own way. Today, he will be brought to your Majesty for disposal!"
Emperor Qingming nodded, turned around and ordered his servant: "Tell me my will, and hand over this case to Dali Temple and the Joint Guardian for investigation and trial."
The waiter came down.
Hearing these words, Xia Tingzhen's eyes changed a little.
The emperor, what is this going to do?
Do it in front of Baiguan, or use it as a means to stabilize the town’s official?
None of these are natural to be afraid of, I am afraid that the emperor’s intentions are not all like this...
"Thank you, Your Majesty." The town official raised his hand to salute again. The tears in his eyes were still in his eyes, and his voice was a little hoarse: "The emperor wants to know that the old minister is a rough person. In a word, if the minister really has two intentions to rebel, why wait until this age today?!"
Everyone in the hall heard the scalp tingling.
This is what Zhen Guo Duke dared to say...
Ji Xiu secretly gritted his teeth-for so many years, he has been fooled by the bold and straightforward look of Zhen Guo Gong, and he really thought that the other party was an old silly white sweet who had no heart in the city!
"The minister followed the emperor to fight in the west and was born to death. In the eyes of the minister, there is nothing more important than the stability of the Daqing country that was set just now!" The old man seemed to confess what he had said deep in his heart. Coming out, the line was heavy: "The minister promised the first emperor to keep the Daqing country, and he has kept this promise over the years, and he has never dared to slack one day—"
Speaking of this, he closed his eyes tremblingly, and sighed: "But now, the minister is indeed old, and there is no one in the family to entrust his descendants. The two sons in the family are both from the literary...The minister originally planned to give the soldier amulet to the emperor after deciding on the Li clan this time, and choose one who can assume the responsibility to lead the Xu family's army..."
Emperor Qingming's eyes moved slightly.
He can't tell whether the other party's words are true or not...
Regardless of whether it is true or not, his purpose is only one, and that is to get back the soldier talisman——
The words of Lord Zhen Guo continued, and he turned his head to look at Xia Tingzhen: "...but unexpectedly he was almost assassinated by this treacherous villain! May I ask if there is such an unscrupulous person in the court, how can the old minister be assured of military power? Put it in the hands of his party feathers! If this brings disaster to Daqing, what face will the minister have to go to see the emperor!"
"..." Xia Tingzhen straightened her lips, and looked at the old man who described the excitement coldly.
"Ten thousand steps back, the minister has reached this age, and now he just wants to spend his old life in peace, not to mention that although the strange poison in his body saved a crippling life, it also damaged the foundation of his body... If people look at them, don't the ministers and the family endanger themselves?" Zhenguo said: "If this worry can be solved, the ministers will also be at ease!"
Emperor Qingming heard the overtones in these words.
In addition to demanding a so-called justice, the Lord Zhen Guo is telling him...is willing to hand over the power of troops in exchange for the safety of the family?
Is it just a ‘safety’?
Qing Mingdi moved his fingers on the letter paper slightly.
If the other party is really willing to cooperate, he doesn’t mind showing some ‘sincerity’...
And if the other party is playing tricks with him...
Emperor Qingming sneered in his heart.
It is natural to beware, but this ‘sincerity’, even if the Lord Zhen Guo doesn’t want it, he can’t rest assured to keep it by his side...
"I understand all the painstaking efforts of the Lord of the Country." The emperor promised: "Since I promised to thoroughly investigate this matter, I will definitely give the Lord of the Country a fair...If it is found out that someone is really trying to harm the Lord of the Country, I will be the first to tolerate it. he!"
Zhen Guogong’s words just made Xia Tingzhen cold all over her body. He really saw it clearly...The other party’s intention today was actually to use military power as bait to force the emperor to send him off!
If he said that the other party had shown Yue Pei and he was not afraid of it, then it would be a bad idea to move out the military power at this time...
After all, the emperor was greedy and stupid...He knew this better than anyone else!
no--
He must keep the emperor ‘awake’ and let the emperor know that all this is just a divorce of the town’s prince and must not be fooled...
At this time, the Lord Zhen Guo had once again held up the imperial decree, and his voice earnestly said: "Your Majesty values the minister. There is a heart in this, and the minister is clear in his heart, but the granddaughter of the old minister is really spoiled at home since childhood, and really entered the palace. I'm afraid it's not a good thing... and the minister just wants her to marry an ordinary family, so that in the future, she can live an ordinary life like the minister."
This can be considered a step up.
When Emperor Qingming listened to the words "in the future" and "ordinary days", he showed a faint smile and said: "Since the country has decided, I have no reason to reluctantly, this time it is indeed my wife. If it’s too abrupt and inconsiderate, please don’t blame the grandfather."
"Your Majesty is serious." Zhen Guogong said in a grateful tone: "Veteran, thank your Majesty for your fulfillment."
Qingming Emperor then signaled his servant to come forward and take back the imperial edict.
Thank you for your many monthly tickets, thank you all, thank you, thank you.
Thank you dfghjk for your reward.
(Today I planned to write a plus update, get up early in the morning, so there was an afternoon update, but my body suddenly became uncomfortable in the afternoon, and my heart was a little uncomfortable recently, and I felt a little irregular. It will be early tomorrow morning. I plan to go to the hospital with my uncle and grandpa. It may be that I have stayed up too much lately. Please remember to go to bed as early as possible and good night.)
